Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?!
Chapter 454 - 447: Different "Thirty Thousand Yuan

Chapter 454: Chapter 447: Different "Thirty Thousand Yuan

Why repeatedly emphasize "thirty thousand dollars"?

For this question, Chief Judge Meng and others didn’t even take a detour to think about it in their minds.

Similar situations have appeared in their past work experiences.

Exaggerating their penalty amount, dramatizing their unfortunate situation to gain sympathy—such cases are not uncommon among various defendants.

Even though this behavior of Mrs. Wang was pointed out by Nan Zhubin, Chief Judge Meng and his team didn’t pay much attention.

It’s too many, they’re too familiar with it.

So familiar that their thoughts would run along with inertia, making an answer emerge like a conditioned reflex.

So that they wouldn’t think: Is there another possibility?

However, although Chonghui and Xia Tian initially thought the same, they immediately began trying to ponder the underlying reason after it was mentioned by Nan Zhubin.

The former captured the psychological principle implied in Nan Zhubin’s words, while the latter believed—Teacher Nan’s words must have their reasoning!

Only Mo Kai, after using shorthand to jot down Nan Zhubin’s words, looked around cluelessly, unable to grasp the idea.

"Little, little leader..." Mrs. Wang was about to say something.

Nan Zhubin interrupted directly.

"This is the first interesting point." Nan Zhubin first repeated clearly.

Through [repetition], he applied pressure on Mrs. Wang once more.

He was also arranging the thoughts of everyone present.

Subsequently, Nan Zhubin extended his second finger: "There’s also a second interesting point."

"Before meeting you, I heard some behavioral characteristics about your past."

Even at this moment, Nan Zhubin still politely used honorifics in his address.

"Before, when you visited the court, though not easy to ’communicate’, it would occupy a lot of staff time." Nan Zhubin acted as if he was in memory, "But it was neither noisy nor troublesome."

"But today, you actually knelt right at the gate, crying and wailing..."

When a person deviates from their inherent behavior pattern, there must be some special motivation outside the norm behind it.

"Why this change?" Nan Zhubin muttered as if talking to himself, or like interrogating.

Upon hearing this.

Chief Judge Meng and his team finally had their eyes light up.

Indeed, Mrs. Wang’s behavior today is abnormal!

It’s just that in the past, with so many defendants or parties causing troubles when not complying with the judgment.

It rather made Mrs. Wang, who used to obediently hold people to complain, seem abnormal.

But today, as Mrs. Wang cried and knelt at the door, for a moment it seemed as if she "returned to normal".

Making Chief Judge Meng and his team unaware that there was something wrong with this situation.

But after being pointed out by Nan Zhubin at this moment, they involuntarily began to think—

Why is this exactly?

...

[Micro-expression Analysis] cannot force the answer to an open-ended question, that level of skill almost belongs to the realm of [Mind Reading Technique].

Fortunately, the current direction is sufficient for Nan Zhubin to utilize the ability of [Micro-expression Analysis] to gradually narrow down the range through closed-ended questions.

Nan Zhubin looked into Mrs. Wang’s eyes.

While Mrs. Wang, when Nan Zhubin was asking questions, kept her mouth open, breathing heavily, waving her hands.

With a face of "anxiety unable to catch a breath".

After struggling to catch her breath, she finally said in broken sentences, "Little leader, you, you can’t say such things randomly, I am an old person, I..."

[Pupils dilated, upper eyelids raised.]

[Lips tightened, jaw slightly trembling.]

[Not much can be seen, but—it is [frightened], and suppressing the impulse to [argue].]

"Good." Nan Zhubin, not having the patience to let Mrs. Wang finish, interrupted, "The two points I identified are indeed very interesting. Let’s first verify the more troublesome second point—"

"Auntie, you actually intended to stir up trouble here for a long time, so as to further reduce the penalty, right—correct."

"In the past, those restrained behaviors were actually a result of deliberately controlling yourself, right—correct."

"But at the same time, you also knew that making a big scene in court today would not end well, and might even result in being dealt with, right?"

"—Correct!"

Nan Zhubin sighed: "Auntie, you are really shrewd!"

Xia Tian’s eyebrows suddenly raised.

For this elderly woman in front of her, Xia Tian and her team originally thought she was the kind of elderly person without legal knowledge or much education.

They always took time every day to accompany Mrs. Wang, partly due to the nature of their work, which couldn’t be avoided;

But on the other hand, they indeed had some sympathy and professional sense of mission arise, thinking that they should popularize the law for the elderly who don’t understand the law, while also offering appropriate humanistic care for those seniors who stumble in life due to a lack of education.

Now it seems, this Mrs. Wang purely took them for a ride!

Not only was she "playing dumb while understanding", but possibly plotting against them as well?!

Xia Tian urgently looked at Nan Zhubin, only hoping that Teacher Nan could quickly deduce the answer.

And indeed, most of the information needed for Nan Zhubin’s reasoning was already obtained.

The young consultant posed a pensive look: "Combining the information just now, in other words, auntie, such behavior in the past was simply to occupy staff time like a typical troublemaker, while waiting for an ’opportunity.’"

"And today your sudden change is because you feel that today this incident could get you everything you want, so no matter how outrageous, it doesn’t matter, right?"
